@Tionisla @bdiederik You'll have to forgive me. Sue seh spoken by a German accent sounds like "sooz-eh" to American ears.

@vwbusguy @bdiederik

It's more two syllables, both starting with an s sound: soo zeh

@Tionisla @bdiederik At this point, I must shameless admit to you that you have already put in more thought and labor in this than I did when presenting this poll. I have a meeting with some folks from SUSE in a few hours, so I will be sure to ask them how they pronounce it as well.

@vwbusguy Easy, I pronounce it as "Software und SystemEntwicklung" 🧐️

@vwbusguy One of my favorite distros when I tried Linux back in the 90s.

@vwbusguy
Kinda like “zoo zee” I suppose
Just as it is written, if you’re pronouncing it German

(Also, no “Sus, eh?” option, I am disappointed)

@vwbusguy I think Suse released a song some years back on how to pronounce it.
